[QUOTE="Derek M., post: 436374, member: 2693"] The only discoloration I've ever witnessed on any brass cases is Lapua, new cases. If you're concerns are correct, then Lapua has been jeapordizing safety for decades. Every new package of Lapua brass I buy has cases that look just like this: [img]http://media.midwayusa.com/ProductImages/Large/1270187523.jpg[/img] I'm not sure what discoloration you are talking about on Federal cases or Norma cases since they send all of theirs from the factory, acid washed which eliminates any color changes from annealing, as far as I've experienced. I've got a box full of new 300 RUM Federal brass, never fired, and about 200 Norma 6.5x284 brass, never fired, and there is no evidence of annealing on any of them (even though all new bottlenecked cases are indeed annealed). They are just acid washed so they all look uniform and "new." When I'm done annealing my brass, they look almost identical to new Lapua cases. I'm satisfied with my results. [/QUOTE]
